Primary beam spectra were obtained for an X-ray industrial equipment (40-150 kV), and for a clinical mammography apparatus (25-35 kV) from beams scattered at angles close to 90°, measured with a CdTe Compton spectrometer. Actual scattering angles were determined from the Compton energy shift of characteristic X-rays or spectra end-point energy. Evaluated contribution of coherent scattering amounts to more than 15% of fluence in mammographic beams. This technique can be used in clinical environments.
使用碲化镉康普顿光谱仪,从接近90°角散射的光束中获取了X射线工业设备(40 - 150 kV)和临床乳腺摄影设备(25 - 35 kV)的原射线光谱。实际散射角由特征X射线的康普顿能量位移或光谱端点能量确定。在乳腺摄影光束中,评估得出相干散射的贡献占注量的15%以上。该技术可用于临床环境。
